Macros

TaleScripts (Community supported Veggie Tales Updates)

Keep your VeggieTales macro program up to date, through a community supported repository, called TaleScripts. Veggie Tales now has Talescripts integrated and updated via the update button on Veggie Tales! I am a member of the Talescripts Team and can assist with adding new macros or updating existing ones in Veggie Tales. If you have something to contribute, let me know!

Tip: Windows Vista/Win 7 Users: You MIGHT need to start Veggie Tales as Administrator to work correctly (ie program not clicking things).

To do this, Right click the Veggie Tales icon, use the "Run as Admin..." option.

To permenantly change this, Right click the Veggie Tales icon, Choose Properties. Click "Compatibility" tab. Check the "Run Program as Administrator box. Click OK. Now it will always start in Administrator mode :)

Voids Testing Recipe for Veggie Tales

I use Veggie Tales to run my void tests. I do 3 different tests each week.

Full Day (8:20AM - 3:50PM egypt time) with canopy OPEN
Full Day with canopy CLOSED
Night Time

Note: For daytime to work, the Sun needs to be => 19 (canopy closed) and => 80 (canopy open). Numbers outside this range is night.

As the recipe runs, I take screenshots (Alt+C) every 10 ticks and then figure out the voids based on the screenshots. I take a screenshot at tick 9, 19, 29, 39 (maybe 40 if possible). The reason I do this odd number instead of 10, 20, 30, 40 is because that is when VT will start clicking on buttons. Taking a screenshot causes the screen to freeze for a moment, which could affect buttons clicking correctly. By doing this 1 tick earlier, will prevent that possibility the buttons not getting clicked correctly.

The below recipes will be able to test every possible void with the least amount of materials

Each run uses the following

15 Dung (Nit), 15 Saltpeter (Pot), 13 water (in jugs), 13 oxy (free)

Nit, Pot, H20, Oxy

Tick 0: 3,3,3,3
Tick 10: 4,4,0,5
Tick 20: 4,4,5,0
Tick 30: 4,4,5,5

So at tick 0, it immediately clicks the Nit button 3 times (Dung), the Pot button 3 times (Saltpeter), H20 3 times and Oxygen 3 times

Tick 10 is 4 Nit, 4 Pot, 0 H20, 5 Oxygen
Tick 20 is 4 Nit, 4 Pot, 5 H20, 0 Oxygen
Tick 30 is 4 Nit, 4 Pot, 5 H20, 5 Oxygen

These recipes would be inserted into the thistle_new.lua or thistle_custom.lua file. Then take screen shot at tick 9, 19, 29, 39, 40. Compare results with ThistleSim or Talos T4 Thistle Garden Simulator. Talos' program is written in Python and requires the installation of a few programs, such as Python for Windows, etc. Worth the extra work as I find it much easier to use than Thistlesim. Thistlesim is an Excel spreadsheet, fyi.

Tip: An easier way to do this would be to run both Day Time on two different gardens at same time. Pin the windows side by side at top and take your screenshots of both windows. Saves time intstead of running to day tests, on one garden, back to back.

You could techinically just use the Night Recipe for day testing too. Note the last number in Night is not 33 or 99? 33 means to close the canopy and 99 means to open it. But the night ends with a zero. That means dont ever adust the canopy (Sun button).

Just manually set one garden with canopy open and another canopy closed. By using the Night recipe, it will not attempt to adjust the canopy.

If you need to set/change one of your canopies quickly, just Plant a Crop, click Sun button, then Abort.

I set local expected_gardens = 2; (in thistle_custom.lua - pin both windows side by side (just don't overlap them)). for testing both possible day voids. They will run without ever adjusting the canopy and use its current position.

Then when its time to test night voids, simply change local expected_gardens = 1;. It doesn't matter what position the canopy is in at night, because there is no sun anyways.

Full Day - Canopy Open

Full Day - Canopy Closed

 ==Macros==
-<font color=blue><b>Feb 3, 2012:</b></font> I have copied over my macros from the T4 wiki. I previously maintained macros on T4 wiki during Tale 4, 5 and 6. They locked the T4/T5 wiki from updates about a week ago, so here they go. Make sure you do NOT have any bookmarks to my Tale 4 Macros page, as it is no longer updated (and T4 wiki moves dirt slow now) !

 ==TaleScripts (Community supported Veggie Tales Updates)==
+Keep your [[Jimbly's Macros | VeggieTales]] macro program up to date, through a community supported repository, called [[TaleScripts]]. Veggie Tales now has Talescripts integrated and updated via the update button on Veggie Tales! I am a member of the Talescripts Team and can assist with adding new macros or updating existing ones in Veggie Tales. If you have something to contribute, let me know!
-<b><font color=blue>Jan 29, 2012:</font></b> Talescript is pretty much setup now and ready for use.
-You do not need to manually install any of the below [[User:Cegaiel#T6_Veggie_Tale_UpdatesVeggieTales | Veggie Tales updates]], if you use [[Talescripts]]. We are still reviewing the other veggie tales 3rd party macros. If yours is not included yet, be patient.
-Talescripts is a repository for Veggie Tales so that all the many variations of the scripts for it, can be accessed in one central location.  AHK support will be added later.
-Instead of viewing the many wiki authors' pages for updates, you can just right click your Talescripts folder and synch. Any new updates will be automatically downloaded. Piecing together your macro suite from various sources and keeping up with updates can be difficult. They can all be synched from one source instead.
-A good example of this, is my below onions and flax updates.  My onion update was actually an update to KasumiGhia's onion update.  Then she made another update/improvement, but still included my updates. So maybe you have downloaded the onion update below. But if  you didn't revisit KasumiGhia's page, you would not know there is actually another improved version. By using a central repository, you can always be sure you have the latest version of the lua, images files, etc.
-But there are many 3rd party updates as well as new macros that have been released since Veggie Tales 1.5.9. These will also be included.
-Synching can be done with two different programs, GIT or SVN. You do NOT need to install both of these programs. <b><font color=green>I recommend using SVN</font></b>, it is a small download and integrates with Windows Explorer and very easy to use. However if you are participating with the updates, etc, then you probably would want Git instead. It is more flexible and the repository is a git server. SVN is more of a workaround/hack to access a git server (but more simpler for new users to just grab updates, in my opinion). More info on below link:
